I manifested the Shushan game

Chapter 68 Can you explain what a feng shui house is?

【Rat Spirit Fruit: This is a special spiritual fruit that is very popular with animals. It can attract spiritual and intelligent animals because it can help animals awaken their intelligence!】
Restriction: Not to be used on animals that are not intelligent or spiritually gifted; use may damage their brain or cause sudden death!

Chen Han was somewhat surprised to see the note.

During the time of the Long-Browed Taoist, the Beast Taming Sect cultivated and sought out various spiritual fruits that were beneficial to spirit beasts, and this Rat Spirit Fruit was likely one of them.

As for why it's called the Rat Spirit Fruit, that remains unknown. Perhaps, like the Rat Fruit in the Legend of Sword and Fairy, it's named after squirrels and other animals because it's imbued with spiritual energy when ripe.

It's also possible that the game's planners knew about the Rat Fruit from the Legend of Sword and Fairy series and just came up with a Rat Spirit Fruit on a whim.

As for why we don't copy it verbatim, it's to avoid being accused of plagiarism.

But isn't that just burying your head in the sand?

However, none of that matters. What matters is the effect of the Rat Spirit Fruit, which helps animals awaken their intelligence. This is indeed very beneficial for a sect that practices beast taming.

Between two spirit beasts of equal strength, one is intelligent and the other is not. The less intelligent one will definitely be outmaneuvered and killed.

In reality, there are many animals that have become sentient, such as bears that like to wear robes and rollerblade, and dogs that like to listen to music.

These animals exhibit two key characteristics: intelligence and anthropomorphism.

Therefore, many people say that these animals have a spiritual nature.

This is also a view shared by netizens.

Once someone owns such an animal, it's almost like they've raised an internet celebrity; sometimes animals become famous even more easily than people.

However, such spiritually intelligent animals are relatively rare, and their spirituality is limited, certainly not comparable to the mythical beasts in Taoist legends.

Chen Han looked at the Rat Spirit Fruit. If this thing were fed to animals, their intelligence should be no less than that of bears that wear cassocks and skateboard, right?
However, not all animals can eat this Rat Spirit Fruit. There are restrictions. Animals that are not spiritually intelligent will have their brains damaged or die if they eat it.

This is somewhat similar to the plot in some superpower movies where characters develop their brains to gain abilities; if you force it, the only outcome is that your head will explode.

The key is that these things are offered at informal religious gatherings.

This made him subconsciously look at Guo Qilong, Deng Yimao, and the others, and he was already thinking about something.

Just then, trucks carrying goods appeared and entered the village, heading towards the Chen family.

The convoy from the green plant base, delivering bamboo, persimmons, and red plums, has arrived.

Chen Han put down the rat spirit fruit and walked towards the parking lot.

My uncle was already waiting there, and soon my junior sister arrived with several waiters.

Behind them were Uncle Big Dog and Uncle Shuisheng, who also brought a group of people. In addition to the employees responsible for making Leizhu Lingcha tea, there was also a group of middle-aged women, all of whom were their wives and had been called in to help.

After all, we ordered 300 pots of each of the following: bamboo, red plum, and persimmon.

Even if it's delivered in three separate deliveries, this time there are still over 100 pots of each type, which is quite a large quantity.

"Uncle, Senior Brother!" Xiaoyu greeted the two of them as she approached.

The same applies to Chen Dagou and Chen Shuisheng.

When the delivery truck arrived, Chen Lin instructed people to help unload the goods. He also said, "Xiaoyu, Dagou, Shuisheng, you know where to place them. You take some people to place them, and I'll take some people to move these potted plants over."

The three nodded.

Chen Dagou, a burly man, picked up a potted plant in each hand and led the group to the visitor center.

The middle-aged woman beside him was also carrying a potted plant; that was his wife, Li Xiaoyun, who had been recruited by Xiaoyu to work as a waitress at the visitor center these past two days.

After his son went to university, he was the only one left at home to farm. His wife would come back to help during the busy farming season and work in the county during the rest of the year. The expenses for his son's university education over the past three years have been considerable.

Now that the clan has given her a stable job, she naturally came back.

Soon, many potted plants were moved to the visitor center. Since the rooms with air conditioning were on the east side, the plants were moved to the west side so as not to affect the guests staying there.

Chen Dagou was the first to arrive. He carried two potted plants, one of persimmons and the other of red plums, while his wife carried bamboo. He also led her into a guest room first.

He had already learned about the three positions of the feng shui layout, and he had also found the central position where the diagonals intersected.

Therefore, upon entering the room, they first placed the potted red plum and persimmon plants they had brought in the Li and Kun palaces.

Then, he took the bamboo bonsai from Li Xiaoyun and said, "From now on, these bonsai must be placed in fixed positions. Your staff at the visitor center must also check the positions regularly and straighten them if they are crooked."

"What's the explanation for this?" Li Xiaoyun asked curiously.

"This is a feng shui arrangement," Chen Dagou explained directly.

"Why are they even using this feng shui scam? It seems like most of the people who come here are young; they don't believe in this stuff." Li Xiaoyun was a little surprised. She thought the potted plant was just bought to decorate the room and make it look nicer.

"You'll have no choice but to believe it when the time comes, just watch closely." Chen Dagou said, arrogantly placing the bamboo bonsai on the table in the middle.

In that instant, a refreshing sensation appeared and spread throughout their bodies.

Li Xiaoyun felt it and looked at the bamboo bonsai in disbelief: "Honey, the room suddenly feels cooler. Is this due to the feng shui arrangement?" "Let me tell you, our Chen family used to be incredibly powerful. Do you think those legends are false?" Chen Dagou said, moving the bonsai away again. The coolness vanished instantly, replaced by heat.

When Chen Dagou put the bamboo bonsai back on the table, that cool and comfortable feeling returned.

Li Xiaoyun was completely stunned: "Is it that amazing? Why didn't you do it before?"

She had been married to the Chen family for over 20 years and had no idea that the Chen family had such miraculous abilities.

In the past, when the elders in her clan talked about those mysterious things, she only regarded them as remnants of feudal superstition. She felt that the Chen family was more like the remnants of the landlord class that had been persecuted.

And that seems to be the case.

The Chen family was indeed attacked.

But today, suddenly, she felt as if her worldview had been turned upside down.

Chen Dagou said with emotion, "Because no one knew how to do it before. By the way, be more respectful to Xiao Han from now on. You should all call him the head of the family."

The title of "head of the family" is not popular in modern times. In fact, to outsiders, it seems out of place to still use the term "head of the family" in this day and age, since reality is different from filming a video.

However, the title of head of the household also represents respect.

Li Xiaoyun understood that her husband meant the feng shui arrangement was related to Chen Han, so she nodded subconsciously.

As the two left the room, they encountered Xiaoyu and Chen Shuisheng, who were also leading people out of other rooms. Those people all had expressions of shock on their faces, clearly having witnessed the wonder of the feng shui arrangement.

At the same time, he couldn't help but feel a sense of awe for that young head of the family.

After all, having been with the Chen family for so long, the shock of suddenly seeing someone come up with something like a feng shui layout is unimaginable.

Over the next period of time, Xiaoyu and her two companions brought in potted plants and placed them in the rooms. They spent half a day renovating all 100 or so rooms.

In this way, there will be enough rooms for the tourists who come later. Otherwise, even if the group of 34 couples leaves, more than a dozen people will arrive today, and 21, 18 and 27 people have booked tickets for the next three days respectively.

Some of these people stayed for two days, and some stayed for three days, so the air-conditioned rooms were simply not enough.

You don't need to worry about that anymore.

"Everyone, tidy up these rooms, prepare daily necessities, and then arrange for the tourists to check in," Xiaoyu instructed directly. Her master had already made some simple repairs to these rooms when he applied for tourism support funds from the county.

Now you don't need to install an air conditioner; just clean and set it up and it's ready to use.

Moreover, when the rooms were first renovated, they seemed a bit rough around the edges, but now they don't look rough at all. They are simply the marks of time, exuding an antique charm, and they look beautiful and comfortable.

Sure enough, as time goes by, a person's perspective on something will change.

Why did I think it was rough back then?
Xiaoyu thought for a moment, then took out her phone and logged into the Douyin ticketing platform's backend.

Previously, the ticket price was 200 per night for a room, 100 for adults, and free for three children under the legal height requirement. Meals were 100 for adults and half price for children.

However, the room priced at 200 is an air-conditioned room, so the new rooms can't be priced the same as the air-conditioned rooms, right?
Her first thought was to raise the price. After all, it was a feng shui house, unique to the Chen family, and it needed to have prestige, right?

It definitely can't be lower than the cost of air conditioning.

She decided to book 500 yuan a night first.

If this price were posted online, it might be criticized, after all, it's a tourist attraction in a village, why would the accommodation be priced like this?

So, she made a change to allow free choice: either an air-conditioned room or a feng shui room, entirely voluntary. Thus, in addition to the 200-yuan-per-night option, there was now a feng shui room option at 500 yuan per night.

The facilities include: shower, toiletries, bed number, etc., but air conditioning is not provided.

After clicking "OK", the interface changed. She planned to experiment with this for two days to see how it went before making further changes.

Afterwards, she also sent a message to the tourists who had already booked tickets and selected rooms, so that these tourists could have a choice.

Almost simultaneously, those who had booked tickets for the Chen family received the information.

Wang Bing was like that. He felt stupid and idiotic. He had watched the video of the Chen family head and thought that "Yuanyuan is not stupid" was a joke, so he told his girlfriend about it and shared the fun.

Who knew that my girlfriend kept happily scrolling through the abstract videos of the Chen family head, and then she came across a video of 'Xiao Yuza' promoting the ancient architecture of the Chen family, and then she was attracted to it.

After a series of questions about whether to go, whether it's good or not, and whether he loves me, he decisively booked a ticket and came straight here, and then took a transfer train to Linhe County.

As soon as Wang Bing got off the bullet train, he suddenly received a system message from the Chen family: "Due to changes in the Chen family's accommodation conditions, a new type of feng shui room has been added. Tourists who have already booked tickets can freely choose to change their accommodation."

"A feng shui room???" Wang Bing was stunned for a moment.

He's traveled to so many places, including waterfront rooms, ocean view rooms, hillside rooms, and rooftop rooms... but he's never stayed in any of them, nor has he ever heard of a feng shui room.
